Moblogging...and Dan Dakich Going Old School Mainstream Media Medieval
First, Maureen Fulton, our Falcon beat reporter from The Blade, has a new blog. Check it out. The RSS feed is verklempt, but it is still nice to see the Blade getting into the whole blogging thing. Maureen is a little more tech savvy than your typical Blade reporter, and is sometimes on AZZ.com. So, keep an eye out for Xs and Mos. (Clever!). Anyhow, her post today wonders who the MAC POY is. She says it is between Justin Ingram and Romeo Travis.
Then, on the Front Row on WLQR, a decidedly non-tech savvy Dan Dakich went after her the old school way--through the mainstream media, terrestrial radio, and all that stuff. He was upset about this quote: Yesterday against Eastern Michigan, the Falcons may have won if they acted like they cared for 40 minutes. For most of the game, however, they didn't show signs they did.
Coach, when he could get a word in edgewise against the sycophantic host, voiced strong objections against Fulton saying his players didn't care. Dakich said it was hard on the players to lose this much, and they are working hard, shooting until 11 at night in the gym. He claimed that he has not slept in his bed in three weeks, preferring to sleep in his office watching film. So, he feels Mo had no business saying they didn't care.
Admittedly, it is tough to read people's mind, but, on the other hand, she said they ACTED like they didn't care. And he said this during his press conference:
"We didn't come out with the energy [like] we displayed in the second half, and you can't do that when you're us," BGSU coach Dan Dakich said.
DD certainly has shown that he does not appreciate criticism from the media--his lambasting of Dan Cummins still ranks up there in our memories--and today he proved he isn't giving up that portion of his character.
